PPTA vice president Doug Clark says the prime minister’s holiday reading would end in Finland and he wanted to gift a final book to the leader in person.
“We wanted to give John Key our treasured copy of 'Finnish Lessons' by Pasi Sahlberg, but we can’t until the New Year and hope he will meet with us to receive it and discuss how the insights in the book might apply to New Zealand,” he said.
“New Zealand politicians need to read this book because it explains why Finland is the top performing education nation in the world. They have systematically climbed to the top over three decades by rejecting the ‘market miracle’”.
“PPTA wishes the prime minister a happy festive season,” said Clark.
